Top 10 countries for cosmetic surgery revealed as figures show rising demand for penis enlargements and other procedures
Cosmetic surgery is booming worldwide as people flock to have millions of operations including breast augmentation, liposuction and Botox.
More than 23 million cosmetic and non-surgical procedures were performed in 2013, according to the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS).
The United States topped the international chart, with almost 4 million people going under the knife or needle, followed by Brazil with more than 2 million procedures.
Britain did not feature in the top 10 but was ranked 14 in the world by the number of plastic surgeons, with an estimated 865 in business.
Figures released by the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (BAAPS) earlier this year showed 17 per cent more operations were performed in the UK in 2013 but the count of 50,122 did not include non-surgical procedures reflected in the ISAPS figures.
A spokesman for BAAPS said little information on the treatments can be collected in Britain because dermal fillers and laser treatments are unregulated.
Botox is the most popular cosmetic procedure in the world. The toxin is injected to paralyse facial muscles to slow down the ageing process.
Other popular non-surgical treatments included fillers, laser hair removal and chemical peels.
More than 1.7 million breast operations were performed last year, making it the most popular cosmetic surgery worldwide, followed by liposuction, eyelid surgery, and rhinoplasty.
Women were by far the biggest consumers in the cosmetic surgery market, making up almost 90 per cent of all procedures in the world – more than 20 million.
Men underwent more than 3 million procedures, mostly rhinoplasty, breast reduction and eyelid surgery.
Penis enlargements were most popular in Germany, where almost 3,000 men had the operation, followed be Venezuela, Spain and Mexico.
According to BAAPS, “boob jobs”, eyelid surgery and facelifts are most popular among women in the UK, while men prefer nose and eyelid surgery, as well as breast reductions.
The number of procedures has rocketed as the economy recovers.

LOS 10 PAÍSES PARA CIRUGÍA ESTÉTICA revela como cifras muestran la creciente demanda de las ampliaciones del pene y otros procedimientos
La cirugía estética está en auge en todo el mundo como la gente en masa a tener millones de operaciones, incluyendo aumento de senos, liposucción y Botox.
Más de 23 millones de procedimientos cosméticos y no quirúrgicos se realizaron en 2013, según la Sociedad Internacional de Cirugía Plástica Estética (ISAPS).

Las cifras publicadas por la Asociación Británica de Cirujanos Plásticos Estéticos (BAAPS) a principios de este año mostraron 17 por ciento más de las operaciones se llevaron a cabo en el Reino Unido en 2013, pero el recuento de 50.122 no incluyeron procedimientos no quirúrgicos reflejan en las cifras ISAPS.
Un portavoz de BAAPS dijo poca información sobre los tratamientos se pueden recoger en Gran Bretaña porque los rellenos dérmicos y los tratamientos con láser no están regulados.
Botox es el procedimiento cosmético más popular en el mundo. La toxina se inyecta para paralizar los músculos faciales para ralentizar el proceso de envejecimiento.
Otros tratamientos no quirúrgicos más populares incluyen materiales de carga, la depilación láser y peelings químicos.

El número de procedimientos se ha disparado ya que la economía se recupere.
Last Tuesday, in a strange moment of network television-pop culture syzygy, the new ABC comedy “Selfie” included a scene in which two colleagues, Eliza and Charmonique, were discussing the movie star Renée Zellweger.
Photographs of a radically different looking Ms. Zellweger have flooded news outlets. At Elle magazine’s annual Women in Hollywood celebration last Monday night, Ms. Zellweger’s forehead was as smooth as a packed ski slope, and her eyes as crystal-blue as ever, but they appeared, in some images, wide and round as pennies. In 24 hours, it seemed, every possible news media outlet had a story or a tweet or a blog post decrying the Oscar-winning actress’s new face. Another day passed, and every possible media outlet featured a chat or post or news report defending Ms. Zellweger and her new-looking face. By Friday, we were all ashamed to still be thinking private thoughts about Ms. Zellweger, but we were.
In the case of Ms. Zellweger, her new appearance set off a battery of intensifying debates. What is new — and plainly shocking to some — is that Ms. Zellweger now looks like someone not even related to the quirkily pretty, Kewpie-doll star who had us at hello. However the method, she has changed herself into someone who looks like the manicured socialite, the moderately successful commercial actress, the benign political wife. Ms. Zellweger looks beautiful .
Ms. Zellweger had probably elected to have a blepharoplasty, or upper eyelid lift, and possibly also a forehead lift, with the addition of injectable fillers that may have widened the planes of her face. She has also likely benefited from laser or ultrasound procedures that tighten the skin.
Nancy Etcoff, an evolutionary psychologist at Harvard and author of “Survival of the Prettiest: The Science of Beauty,” said: “We have gotten used to seeing bad plastic surgery. Two big basketballs on the chest, fish lips, blown-up cheeks. But this is a little different. This is about a lot of subtle changes that add up to a person who no longer looks like our memory of them. She looks like a different person.” Instead of aging along with us, she jumped off the path directly into another identity.
Faces are tightly packed with important biological information, Dr. Etcoff said. “They tell people who we are, who our relatives are, how we feel,” she said. “We are face virtuosos. We can discern one face from thousands, even millions, of other faces. When someone does something to their face that renders them unrecognizable, when that impacts our ability to read their face, it really is a jolt.”
“It’s a terrible double bind,” Dr. Spar said, noting the sense of hypocrisy around the situation. “On the one hand, we’re being told don’t worry about how you look, embrace inner goodness and stop judging on external appearance, and yet as a community we have all done nothing but talk about poor Renée Zellweger’s face all week.”

Platelet Rich Plasma therapy — or PRP Available in the Office of dr. mark bishara
A new hair-loss treatment is giving hope to millions of people with thinning hair.
The treatment, called Platelet Rich Plasma therapy — or PRP — could help regrow and thicken hair without surgery, drugs or expensive treatments.
PRP relies on the patient’s own platelets. The patient’s blood is drawn and placed in a machine, where the plasma is separated from the blood and injected directly into that patient’s scalp.
The platelets contain growth factors that stimulate the regrowth and thickening of hair follicles.
Eyebrow Transplants Enhance Fullness in Thinning Brows
“This is the best kept secret in the world,” Dr. Jeffrey Rapaport, a New Jersey dermatologist, told ABC News.
Tanisha Jimenez has used PRP and she says it has worked for her.
Jimenez said that years of pulling her hair back caused her to lose some around her face. Just weeks after her first treatment, her hair started to regrow, she said.
“It’s amazing,” she said.
Rapaport noted, though, that this isn’t considered a cure for baldness.
“It’s a treatment … What we’re doing is increasing the diameter of the size of the hair follicle,” he said. “And we’re keeping the hairs that would stop growing in the growing phase.”
The best candidate for PRP is someone who has recently started losing hair, Rapaport said. It won’t work for those who are completely bald, and it won’t regrow all the lost hair, he said.
The entire process, including the injection, takes about 90 minutes.
Rapaport recommends one treatment per month for the first four months and then two maintenance treatments per year. Some doctors add other hair-growth medications to the mix

PLASMA RICO EN PLAQUETAS TERAPIA – O PRP DISPONIBLES EN LA OFICINA DEL DR. MARCA BISHARA
10 de noviembre 2014, 11:05 AM ETABC News a través de Good Morning America
Un nuevo tratamiento de pérdida de cabello está dando esperanza a millones de personas con el adelgazamiento del cabello.
El tratamiento, llamado terapia de plasma rico en plaquetas – o PRP – podría ayudar a crecer y engrosar el cabello sin cirugía, medicamentos o tratamientos costosos.
PRP se basa en las propias plaquetas del paciente. La sangre del paciente se extrae y se coloca en una máquina, en donde se separa el plasma de la sangre y se inyecta directamente en el cuero cabelludo de ese paciente.
Las plaquetas contienen factores de crecimiento que estimulan el nuevo crecimiento y engrosamiento de los folículos pilosos.
Cejas Trasplantes Mejorar Plenitud en Adelgazamiento cejas
“Este es el secreto mejor guardado del mundo”, el Dr. Jeffrey Rapaport, un dermatólogo de Nueva Jersey, dijo a ABC News.
Tanisha Jiménez ha utilizado PRP y ella dice que ha trabajado para ella.
Jiménez dijo que los años de tira de su pelo hacia atrás le hizo perder algo de alrededor de su cara. Apenas unas semanas después de su primer tratamiento, su cabello comenzó a crecer de nuevo, dijo.
“Es increíble”, dijo.
Rapaport señalar, sin embargo, que esto no se considera una cura para la calvicie.
“Es un tratamiento … Lo que estamos haciendo es aumentar el diámetro del tamaño del folículo piloso”, dijo. “Y estamos cumpliendo con los pelos que dejaría de crecer en la fase de crecimiento.”
El mejor candidato para PRP es alguien que ha comenzado recientemente la pérdida de cabello, dijo Rapaport. No funcionará para aquellos que son completamente calvo, y no va a volver a crecer todo el cabello perdido, dijo.
Todo el proceso, incluyendo la inyección, tarda unos 90 minutos.
Rapaport recomienda un tratamiento por mes durante los primeros cuatro meses y luego dos tratamientos de mantenimiento por año. Algunos médicos añaden otros medicamentos crecimiento del cabello a la mezcla

1. Researchers say it’s an antidepressant. Findings presented at the American Society of Plastic Surgeons Plastic Surgery conference show the link between cosmetic surgery patients and a reduced dependency on antidepressant medication. Some doctors suggest that select patients who had undergone surgery stopped taking antidepressants shortly after their procedure; this could mean that they simply felt better and no longer needed prescription medication to cope.
Still, doctors recommend patients should not rely on cosmetic surgery solely because they’re dissatisfied with life. Anyone experiencing major life changes or other stress in their lives should avoid drastic changes in their appearance until the stress subsides.
2. Cosmetic surgery can improve your self-image. Whether you’re getting a chemical peel or liposuction, enhancing your appearance can give you a boost of confidence. Although improving your self-image from the inside will still be more important than any outward fix.
3. Cosmetic surgery can help you take charge of your appearance. Maintaining a youthful appearance requires a lot of hard work, and sometimes your diet, exercise and commitment to a healthy lifestyle just aren’t enough. Cosmetic surgery procedures can help you take charge of your appearance so you enjoy a youthful look at any age.
4. Cosmetic surgery can add years to your life and boost your self-esteem. When you feel good on a regular basis, you may be lowering your risk of depression because maintaining a high level of self esteem will make you feel happier overall. A study on high self-esteem and interpersonal success found in the Psychological Science in the Public Interest suggests that, “Self-esteem has a strong relation to happiness”. The domino effect of boosting your self-esteem so that it touches every area of your life can make it easier to connect with others and enjoy stable relationships for the long-term.
5. Cosmetic surgery can improve your relationships. Healthy relationships can improve your self-esteem and may make it easier to enjoy a thriving social life. Feeling confident about your appearance can help you enjoy social situations and build lasting relationships so you won’t be held back because of a poor body image or low self-esteem.

1. Los investigadores dicen que es un antidepresivo. Los resultados presentados en la Sociedad Americana de Cirugía Plástica conferencia de cirujanos plásticos muestran el vínculo entre los pacientes de cirugía estética y una menor dependencia de los fármacos antidepresivos. Algunos médicos sugieren que algunas pacientes que habían sometido a cirugía dejaron de tomar los antidepresivos poco después de su procedimiento; esto podría significar que simplemente se sentían mejor y ya no necesitan prescripción de medicamentos para hacerle frente.
Aún así, los médicos recomiendan que los pacientes no deben confiar en la cirugía estética únicamente porque están insatisfechos con la vida. Cualquier persona que experimente grandes cambios en la vida u otro estrés en sus vidas deben evitar cambios drásticos en su aspecto hasta que el estrés disminuye.
2. La cirugía estética puede mejorar su propia imagen. Ya sea que usted está recibiendo un peeling químico o liposucción, mejorando su apariencia puede darle un impulso de confianza. Aunque la mejora de su imagen de sí mismo desde el interior será todavía más importante que cualquier solución externa.
3. La cirugía cosmética puede ayudarle a tomar las riendas de su apariencia. El mantenimiento de una apariencia juvenil requiere un montón de trabajo duro, ya veces su dieta, el ejercicio y el compromiso con un estilo de vida saludable simplemente no son suficientes. Procedimientos de cirugía cosmética pueden ayudarle a tomar las riendas de su apariencia para que disfrute de una mirada joven a cualquier edad.
4. La cirugía estética puede agregar años a su vida y aumentar su autoestima. Cuando te sientes bien sobre una base regular, se le puede reducir su riesgo de depresión porque se mantiene un alto nivel de autoestima le hará sentirse más felices en general. Un estudio sobre una alta autoestima y el éxito interpersonal que se encuentra en la Ciencia Psicológica en el Interés Público sugiere que, “La autoestima tiene una fuerte relación con la felicidad”. El efecto dominó de aumentar su autoestima para que toque todas las áreas de su vida puede hacer que sea más fácil conectar con los demás y disfrutar de relaciones estables en el largo plazo.
5. La cirugía estética puede mejorar sus relaciones. Las relaciones saludables pueden mejorar su autoestima y pueden hacer que sea más fácil disfrutar de una vida social próspera. Sentirse seguro acerca de su apariencia puede ayudarle a disfrutar de las situaciones sociales y construir relaciones duraderas, de manera que no se llevará a cabo de nuevo a causa de una mala imagen corporal o baja autoestima.
